Hey Dick'n. How's it going brutha?

It is definitely tight. My receiver is under the top deck. I am running the tiny Helios receiver with a KO VFS2000. I will snap a pic.....

Default Pro4 BMI Chassis

Is there a time line as to when the Pro4 BMI chassis will be available?

I am tossing around the idea of selling my complete BMI Pro4 with all spares, etc. Its mint. Keep an eye out on the RCTech for sale sections if I decide to pulll the trigger soon on it. I am starting to think of going back to my BMI eTC3 and BMI Xray.

I think they are actually ready for production. Jason is more than likely waiting for more graphite as he just can't keep it in stock as BMI is selling faster than a speeding locomotive and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!!!!!!!!!

Are you revealing something you shouldn't John....

Yeah-I change cars with the change of seasons!! But I will stick to one car during the "winter" carpet season. Last few years has always been the FTTC3, Warpspeed TC3 and then the BMI TC3.

But I have tried and tested them all (losi-XXXs, G+, Tamiya EvoIII, Xray-Evo2, PB, T1, FOC, Short arm, HPI Pro4), but the spring and summer is PLAY TIME!!!
